Oct 15, 2025
Reka, Owner of Three Pod Studio, got together 39 Talented Creators (honored to be one of them!) to show you how we all style hot beverages. Pros are from the field of creative, styling, photography, recipe development, cookbook authors and they are goin’ IN on all their best tips, specifics and tools on how to style beautiful hot beverages for photo shoots. (Can I say . . . how great is it to have 39 people on one post weigh in and give you their best tips?!?)
So, Reka asked us all: “What is Your Pro Tip for Styling Hot Drinks?”
The variety of answers are so great! Some people went tip and techniques, some went with the tools they use.
Check out the entire post ~ Pro Tips For Styling Hot Drinks on Reka’s Blog at Threepodstudio. (You can also check out the last Reka series post I did ~ Pro Tips For The Best Food Styling Hacks.)
